Waltham, Mass, Jan, 80, 1916. While q
boy he worked in 9, cotton factory, and
afterwards he learned the trade of ma
chinist. He also studied law, was admit
ted to the bar. and in 1S49 was elected to
the Legisla. ure of Massachusetts,. He was
elected q Member of Congress in 1852,
and in 1854 was reelected, and at the fol-
lowing meeting Of Congress was chosen
Speaker ON the 133d ballot. In 1857 he
was elected Governor of Massachusetts,,
and reelected in 1858 and 1859. On the
outbreak of the civil war he was made
ajor General Of the Volunteers, was as
signed to command in the Army of the
Potomac, and was subsequently placed at

A Cool Commander.

Many things of general interest might
be referred to, and some of the anecdotes
concerning Colonel Thomas must be quot
ed, as showing the qualities which made
him good General. He was brave to e1-
cess, and always in front of his men. At
Bisland, where the regiment had to sup
port a battery-the most trying duty re-
quired of soldier, as he has only to stand
under fire, hour after hour, and wait
Colonel Thomas, upon his horse, kept the
front alone, riding back and forth, and
shouting such words as Steady Stand
firm! Remember old Vermont is looking
at you! Steady, old Vermont" Once, to
his saying that Vermont was looking at
them, one man replied: slope Vermont
won't see us in such a scrape again!"
which raised q laugh along the line and
helped more than the sternest command
would have done to keep the boys in coun-
tenance. At another point, "where some
white face showed the need of little more
grit Colonel Thomas said, as the shot
tore into the earth: "This reminds me of
sowing marrow-fat PEAS up iA old Ver-

1t the lro,,f,,a Table.

As in washing, everything should be ready
and in proper order before the days work is
begun. The irons should be scrupulously
clean and smooth; this can be done by rub
bling them with beeswax and salt or powdered
Dathbrick. The heaviest irons accomplish the
best work, and should be used with rolling
motion and strong pressure Musllns and
prints do not require very hot irons, but sti6
white garments need hotter ones The iron
ing table and. board should be firm and strong
and covered with coarse WOO en- blanket over
which clean coarse sheet should be pinned
bosom board about eight inches wide, aud
a long board for skirts and dresses, are me-
cessity to the laundry. Iron holders should
be padded to protect the HANDS from burning.
Collars, cuffs and similar articles should be
covered with clean, thin cloth, and the iron
passed over it several times, when it may be
removed and the iron passed directly over the
article. Fine, soft laces and muslins that do
not require polishing should be carefully un-
rolled, one at a time, and spread on soft
blanket, covered with thin, 30 tsheet Laces,
embroideries, and trimmings must BE- careful
y pulled into shape. with all the edges and
pur!lng picked out; those needing ironing
carefully smoothed, and those that do not
folded. Always iron by the thread of the ma
ter.aL Embroidery should be ironed ON the
wrong side on sof5 blanket
mirroring shirts use heavy irons we'll heated.
First iron the thick bands, then the bodies and
sleeves, and last the bosom, which should be
rubbed over with clean cloth wrung out of
warm wator. Then the IRON should be passed
over rapidly, then rubbed again with a damp
cloth and ironed unit it is polished 10 gloss
the linen polishing iron with smooth, round
edge should be used with all possible force
The thickest parts of dresses, such as the
wristbands, the gathers and sleeves, should
DO ironed first Dresses should always be
ironed on tho wrong side first and finished on
the right. Fine muslins look much better il
they are ironed twice in opposite directions.
Caps, fchus and aprons, where the lace is
full, should have the frlll ironed frs In
plating frills, each p ait should be laid by the
thread, and held until ironed in place
While ironing is difficult work to accomplish
nicely, any housekeeper who will take tho
trouble to give personal supervise sion to the
work will soon teach even an Indifferent servant
to do it properly. A willing hand, gu dad BY
kind and intelligent instructor, will soon
overcome all obstacles and make the work
easy.-Ars. Eliza Il Parker, In Good Hoxse-
keeping.

Ereesi,,g Dry Soils.


One Of the good effects from undertaking
10 that it increases the depth to which frost
penetrates soil, thus gradually making deeper
the space in which plant roots may penetrate
in search Of food and moisture This is q
strong argument for making deop drains, es-
pecially on level exposed surfaces where the
snow Is liable to blow of. No lie ia absolute
" safe from frost in our Northern States at .
less depth than three feet. though slight toIch
Of frost at this depth might do no harm.
Drains made twenty inches or two feet deep
are often disarranged from freezing, and but
for the fact that such drains are often in hol-
lows where they are protected by snow, still
We cannot tell by digging in undrained ground
how deeply frost will penetrate after the
draining produces it's full effects For num-
Der of years after drain is made the frost
reaches lower level in winters equally cold.
Dry sand sometimes freezes to q depth of
three and even four feet in exposed banks It
is not possible to got q clay soil 80 dry as sand,
and this freezing makes solid barrier of ice,
through which cold air cannot penetrate. In
. clay soil, unless directly over drain, there
is seldom much frost below six or eight inches
from the surface and on sod even less than
this Hence the great benefit from fall plow-
ing such soils to make them DEEPER but this
must be combined with thorough undcrdrain-
ing to make the advantage permanent
